MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Target is pleased to announce plans to open a new store in Baltimore in
October 2013. The new store, located on Boston Street, will be part of
the Canton Crossing Shopping Center. To date, Target has announced plans
to open fourteen Target stores in 2013.

“Target is pleased to open its third store in the Baltimore community”

The Baltimore East store will be approximately 135,000 square feet, and
will offer guests the everyday essentials and exclusive brands they have
come to expect from Target. In addition, the store will include a
selection of fresh produce, fresh packaged meat and pre-packaged baked
goods to further enhance guests’ shopping experience.

The Baltimore East location will employ approximately 200 team members.
Target will host job fairs approximately two months prior to the new
store opening, at which prospective candidates may apply and interview
for open team member positions. Candidates may also apply online at Target.com/careers
or at in-store kiosks located in all Target stores approximately three
months prior to the new store opening.

“Target is pleased to open its third store in the Baltimore community,”
said Samir Shah, Target’s senior vice president of stores in the Eastern
region. “Maryland continues to be a great market for Target, and we are
committed to being a good neighbor and developing long-lasting
relationships with guests and the Baltimore community.”

Target creates strong partnerships with local organizations in all of
the communities where the company does business through Target’s
community giving programs. This store will start a local grant program,
contribute to the United Way and donate food to a Feeding America
member, or approved agency. Target also encourages team members to
volunteer their time to serve the needs of their community.
